Ingredients: (serves 8 persons)

100g rice flour

60g corn starch

5g xanthan gum

125g softened butter (regular or vegetal)

125g raw sugar

3 eggs

30g cacao powder

2 tsp vanilla powder (or grated vanilla seeds)

4g baking powder

Preparation: 20 minutes

Baking: 45 minutes – 150°C

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 150°C.

In a large bowl, mix the softened butter with the sugar until it whitens a little.

Add the flour, the starch, the baking powder and the xanthan gum.

Add the eggs one by one and mix in well.

Separate the batter in two bowls. In one add the cacao, in the other the vanilla.

Apply a bit of butter to the inside of a cake tin (or use baking paper) and layer the cacao and vanilla batters regularly.

Leave as it is for large cacao stripes or use a spoon to draw long lines in to to form smaller designs.

Bake at mid-height for 45 minutes. Plant a sharp knife in the middle to check if the cake is baked through.

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or use it as you would use a brioche for your breakfast.
